The jury also reviewed bodycam footage where an officer informed Karen that she was “hammered,” a claim she dismissed as “bulls—t.”
Karen, 61, was charged with multiple offenses, including Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and Driving While Impaired (DWI). She was found guilty on nearly all counts, except reckless driving, and is scheduled for sentencing on January 29. Her attorney expressed disappointment with the verdict but respects the jury’s decision, indicating plans to appeal.
The incident has become a central storyline in the current season of “The Real Housewives of Potomac,” with viewers and fans expressing a range of reactions online. Many are stunned by Karen’s behavior as depicted in the footage, leading to widespread discussion across social media platforms.
Karen has previously addressed the incident, attributing her actions to a moment of grief over her mother’s passing. She stated that she was emotionally distressed on the night of the crash, which influenced her behavior.
As the sentencing date approaches, the public remains engaged in discussions about the implications of Karen’s actions, both legally and within the context of her reality television career.
